When the large shield soldiers approached, Sun Hu did not order an attack.
It was not until the Yuan army moved a lot of ordnance under the city wall with the cover of large shield soldiers that Sun Hu issued the order to attack.
In one volley, a hundred iron balls weighing more than 30 kilograms poured down.
The large shield was shattered like paper, and the large shield soldiers and the equipment behind the shield were all baptized by artillery.
In less than half an hour, most of the ordnance was destroyed, and the Yuan army began to retreat again.
This time, the Yuan army regrouped after taking a short rest.
They no longer drove away human shields, nor used large shield soldiers and ordnance.
The soldiers were all carrying ladders, as if they were preparing to face the artillery fire, and rushed directly to the city wall regardless of it!
As the marching drums sounded, the soldiers carried the ladders and rushed over as if they were desperate.
There are ten thousand-man teams in total, and each thousand-man team holds five ladders and charges towards the city wall.
Although I attacked the city eight times, those eight times were actually just tests to retreat and see the enemy's strength.
Although the archers can slightly counterattack the enemies on the city and cause certain casualties, they must get close to the city.
Guan Bao looked toward the tent door and saw a person walking back in small steps. He was clearly a man.
Wanzhe advised: "The thieves' artillery is powerful. If we want to attack, we can attack them!"
During the run, they will be scattered by artillery. Once they reach the city, the power of the bow and arrow volley is greatly reduced, but they will be suppressed by the bows and arrows of the defenders on the city wall.
Guan Baorere said: "You are the head coach of that team now, and you only obey the orders of the Crown Prince and His Majesty."
Guan Bao's expression changed slightly: "What do I want to do?"
"Not all Yuan troops are fools. Yesterday was just a test. Now that they come again today, they will have nothing to rely on!"
They climbed up the city wall, ordered ten thousand cavalry, opened the city gate and chased them out.
Lan Yu was taken aback and said, "Does he believe that we deliberately broke in and lured us out to fight in the field?"
He took the lead, rushed up from the hillside, led the troops into the Yuan army, and fought with us to make us evacuate.
Seeing that the battle situation was about to change, Guan Bao sighed secretly, sent an order, and beat the drum to withdraw his troops.
Guan Bao’s face is definitely cloudy.
Lan Yu passed the order and asked the small army to stop, then ended the entire army and formed a defensive posture.
After all, Jiangdu's army has no reputation for being weak in defending the city. I definitely dare to attack with all my strength as soon as it's over.
There was very little wind under the city wall, so Sun Hu stood upright against the wind.
The setting sun rises in the west, and the setting sun is like blood.
However, the enemy's damage is not nearly 80%. As long as it is unexpected, I will be able to eat up the defenders in one bite tomorrow morning!
Lan Yu nodded, and immediately sent an order to go up and be on strict alert. He also mobilized seven thousand-man teams and asked us to stand by far away from the north gate.
On the contrary, the Mongols fought desperately and weakly, resulting in heavy damage. Rivers of blood flowed into the city and corpses were scattered everywhere!
When Guan Bao saw that the enemy's resistance was tenuous and that only ten thousand people could block his own elite cavalry of eighty thousand, he secretly praised him.
It was still light the next day, so Lan Yu was woken up.
Guan Bao took a deep breath, knowing that if he agreed, he would always be able to gain the prince's trust again.
Wanzhe sighed: "Since the marshal did not give the order to expand the outline, let's just obey the order and suspend the retreat!"
The scouts came to report that the Yuan army was preparing to attack the city again!
Guan Bao changed his color and said: "How is that possible! The total Anfeng garrison is only 70,000!"
When they rushed to the city, artillery fire rang out, and another ten thousand archers rushed out from the Yuan army array.
From that retreat, I came to two conclusions.
Although I don't have a small army of 100,000, I used 70,000 of them as bait to attack the city. Although I survived half of them, my fighting spirit was lost, so they were of no use.
Guan Bao Xiaoxuan, at that time, not one part of the Yuan soldiers followed the order to the north, but the other part was entangled by the enemy.
Guan Bao was frightened, how could the enemy be killed so slowly? And the number of them seemed to be only 80,000!
Lan Yu's eyes lit up and said: "Yu Lin, the enemy has been defeated into an army. If we lead the troops in pursuit, we will definitely gain a lot!"
Guan Bao angrily rebuked: "Fart! Wanzhe doesn't have twenty thousand people. Even if the enemy comes out in full force, there are only seventy thousand. Can I even block it for a few hours?"
Suddenly, a soldier came back from the door and said, "Commander Guan, the Prince's Palace has sent an envoy."
The same as yesterday, the Mongols attacked the city very fiercely today. They attacked from early morning to noon. They climbed to the city wall in the face of the artillery. No one climbed down the city wall without breaking several times.
It's a pity that Jiang Dujun's reaction was beyond our expectations.
However, due to the artillery bombardment, only a few people climbed down the city wall each time, and they were quickly killed, posing too little threat to the city wall.
It was just getting dark, and we could vaguely see the Yuan army gathering their troops.
The order was immediately passed on, and two cavalry teams of 10,000 people, one on the right and one on the left, rushed towards Jiangdu's army at the same time.
"Just in case?"
At that moment, a cavalry scout flew nearby and said slowly: "Commander, it's broken. General Wanzhe is blocking the enemy's reinforcements!"
All I can use now is the 70,000 horses in my hand. If the enemy's reinforcements really don't have 10,000, I will be able to compete!
Ten ladder-thousand-man teams have been beaten to pieces by the enemy. Even if they climb the city wall, they will not be able to exert sustained pressure on the city wall.
Back in front of the camp, Guan Bao took out the map and looked at it silently.
The sky is filled with dust, forming a yellow gray cloud!
Yu Lin nodded and said: "That's bad, he goes to find General Chang, and you lead the troops to pursue him!"
Lan Yu was secretly shocked: "Sure enough, Sun Hu got it right again. The Tatars deliberately lured you out to pursue you."
"Marshal Kuo Kuo is sending a message to the pass to mobilize the princes in the pass to fight against the traitors together!"
Sun Hu said in a deep voice: "You must be a traitor. Facing our artillery, what can he think of?"
"Know!"
Moreover, the advance was so violent that even the supervisory team could not stop us, and even dispersed the small camp of the Yuan army in front.
Guan Bao is silent.
"Come and tell them!" A voice sounded from the tent.
"Commander, news just came that before Marshal Kuo Kuo arrived at Zhangde Road, he only sent Bai Suo and his 70,000 troops to go south to Shandong. I will lead 170,000 troops myself and stay at Zhangde Road!"
Seeing the enemy's reinforcements getting closer and closer, I gritted my teeth and evacuated directly with these 10,000 soldiers, without caring about the remaining 10,000 soldiers.
Lan Yu, who was at the foot of the hillside, saw the reinforcements arriving. She became energetic and roared: "The reinforcements are coming. Brothers, follow you and charge!"
For that ambush, Guan Bao sacrificed less than 10,000 men to attack the city, and killed thousands more when he fled. Only then did he lure the enemy out, naturally allowing them to escape.
I quickly put on my armor, got up and came to the city wall, only to see Sun Hu hadn't arrived yet and was looking up.
While fighting bloody battles, Lan Yu moved with her troops and quickly occupied a large hillside, resisting the enemy from a low position and waiting for reinforcements to arrive.
At that time, there were not eight Yuan army infantry coming from the north, two infantry and one cavalry.
Guan Bao said in a deep voice: "Did your Majesty and the Crown Prince make a bad decision and adjust the Guanzhong Army?"
The light in Guan Bao's eyes slowly flashed, becoming a young marshal is what every military commander dreams of.
"What are you waiting for me?"
"Marshal Kuo Kuo will convince your Majesty and the Crown Prince that he must be worried. Wait patiently and don't use troops without permission, so as not to lose the troops and generals! The words have been brought and I'm leaving!"
"Hmph, this man is getting more and more domineering. I'm afraid he will be King Ji Ning again in the future! The prince has issued an order, as long as he can win a small victory, I will make him the military marshal and control the troops in the sky!
”
He lowered his head and said: "Marshal Kuangkuo asked you to convey the order and tell them to move accordingly. They are going to attack Anfeng and wait for my arrival!"
However, considering the weakness of the bandit artillery, it was difficult to say yes if I wanted to.
Suddenly, my scalp felt numb. When I looked up, I saw no cavalry queues in the northeast and northwest, waiting quietly.
"Please ask the envoy of the Courtyard of Harbin to report back to the crown prince. In the end, we will definitely win a small victory and let the people in heaven know that the only person in the court who can fight is Zhiwo Kuankuo!"
Guan Bao rode on horseback and looked at the charging team from a distance. When the gunfire sounded, his own team was in chaos.
Yu Lin sang and retreated fiercely all the way, killing the fleeing Yuan army at every turn, and chasing them to a plain area without knowing it.
While I was thinking, I saw the sound of horse hooves, and in the dark sky, a cavalry force rushed from the south.
"Qi Gao, is he following Marshal Kuanggui? What are you doing here?"
Guan Bao knew that the Anfeng garrison would send troops to help, so he only left the cavalry to encircle Lan Yu.
The scout said: "If the other 80,000 people are hidden, please think of a way!"
First, the thieves here do not have muskets. Seventh, even if the thieves only have artillery, it will be very difficult to attack the city, and they can only pay for it with human lives.
Sun Hu said: "You can lead the troops in pursuit. Go and tell Brother Chang to let me lead the troops over, just in case."
Guan Bao watched Qi Gao leave, his eyes filled with anger.
At that moment, Lieutenant General Wanzhe walked back from the commander's tent, his face less dignified.
Wanzhe shook his head: "You know it too."
If I dare to hesitate again, I quickly pass on the order and march immediately!
Two hours before the battle, I had led my troops to the front of Jiangdu Army and surrounded us.
At noon, the Yuan army attacking the city finally ended its advance.
When Guan Bao saw the enemy's response, he knew that waiting would be useful.
Lan Yu frowned and said: "The Tatars attacked the city eight times yesterday, and they all entered after a while. Why do they dare to attack the city today? I'm afraid it's not weird!"
"What, is he confident that he can win the battle?" Ha Cizhang squinted at me.
Sun Hure looked at the fleeing Yuan army and said: "We can rule out that possibility!"
The Yuan army did not launch an attack immediately. Just like the best hunters, we had to wait for our prey to turn around hastily and fall into chaos, and then pounce on it!
Guan Baoxuan stood up hurriedly and came out of the tent. He saw a man coming on horseback, it was Ha Cizhang.
Before dawn, the Mongols attacked the city again.
The scout said: "The enemy is either 70,000 or 10,000, and there are not 80,000 cavalry!"
Ha Cizhang's face didn't look ugly and said: "Kuoku has been stationed on Zhangde Road without permission. He should know about it, right?"
The Anfeng defenders and the Yuan army fought together very slowly. The Anfeng defenders were inferior to the Yuan army in combat power, but their morale was low. They fought fiercely for a short time, but they did not lose the upper hand.
"Mr. Ha Yuan, does the prince have any instructions?" Guan Bao greeted him.
The other two infantrymen bypassed the battlefield to intercept enemy reinforcements.
